Did you miss the part where you don't need that hub if you use android? You will get Android Auto when we get the update and the only thing you need is Android 5 (lollipop) or higher. No parts to order, no dealer visit, no extra expense....you are saved from the Apple tax.

No need if streaming from an android phone anyway, bluetooth audio will work just fine. Less wear and tear on the 3.5mm jack. I love streaming over bluetooth since i can use the screen or steering wheel buttons to forward to next song etc.
Only way i see it as an issue is if you aren't using an android phone and want to stream from an sd card or an older mp3 player. USB is better/faster than sd card anyway.

Ordered part number HC3Z-19A387-B. Picked it up. Box says exactly that part number but sticker on usb hub (which looks identical) has a part number HC3T-14F014-BC. I saw on first page a member has had something similar happen but the hub looked different. Any Ideas?
